Extract text from Game save files (STUFF)
To convert STUFF Save files to another format, you need Daigaku Gurashi or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Game Configuration File" file type, you need software like Daigaku Gurashi or a similar tool.
The .STUFF file extension is a generic placeholder format used primarily by independent game developers to store configuration, save states, or asset data without assigning a standard extension. The most common use case (40%) is found in Daigaku Gurashi, a school life simulation game, where the file stores character relationship data. Another significant use (27%) is in the popular Apple Arcade game Sneaky Sasquatch, where it functions as a JSON-formatted save file.
Users typically need to convert or open these files to mod game content, such as altering character traits in Daigaku Gurashi or editing save progress (e.g., currency, inventory) in Sneaky Sasquatch. A major limitation is that operating systems like Windows and macOS do not recognize the extension, often displaying a "Windows cannot open this file" error. Despite the obscure name, these are almost always plain text or JSON data containers.
